Kristina was great too work with. She’s professional, talented and great value for money. Would highly recommend.

Kristina is an amazing photographer and incredible person. So easy to work with and so helpful in every way. I cannot recommend her enough! Her rates are more than reasonable and I would absolutely not even think of hiring anyone else if the opportunity arises.

Kristina has the perfect personality to be a wedding photographer.  She was super responsive and on top of everything during planning, and was very nice and accommodating when I wanted to add things later on. The day of she was a dream come true, my husband is still talking about it months later! 

I’ve never had professional photos taken at an event at all… I was so happy with how our wedding photos came out!! I was nervous but she made the process easy and comfortable. 10/10 would recommend

Frankly I think Kristina should charge more because what we got vs what we paid, feels above and beyond. She is simply wonderful, from her personality, attention to detail, promptness, she only ever expanded the vision to something I can only describe as ethereal. Stop looking, book today!!

We had a very small wedding but I still wanted professional pictures. Kristina was a great fit for us. I told her I wanted some portraits along with a lot of candid shots. She asked me to send her a list of people I wanted portraits with . She went right down the list and got them all. I also saw her snapping photos throughout our reception. She is very personable and put my husband, who is a bit camera shy, at ease. Her price was very reasonable too! I am so excited to see all of my pictures!

We truly couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our wedding day. From the moment we met her, she was incredibly attentive, down to earth, and just on it in every way. She went above and beyond her role—not only capturing the most perfect, timeless photos but also stepping in during some chaotic moments, including helping with a hiccup in our flower delivery and smoothing over a few last-minute issues at the venue.

What stood out most is how grounded she kept me throughout the day. Her calm, confident presence was exactly what I needed, and it felt like having a supportive friend by my side. My husband, who is not easily impressed, was absolutely thrilled with her and her work.

We’ve had multiple family members comment on how fantastic she was, and a few have even said they’d be reaching out to her for future events. That says it all.

I cannot recommend her enough—she is the full package: incredibly talented, professional, and a true calming presence on what can be a hectic day. We’re so grateful to have had her capture one of the most important days of our lives.

Kristan was absolutely amazing, got the best photos and captured amazing memories for our family! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to capture a special moment or day. She is also the nicest person and helped make our day that much less stressful in so many ways!

Words cant express how amazing Kristina was for our wedding this weekend. She was such a HUGE help, great friend to us and beyond outgoing. We are beyond grateful for her being part of our special day! If you ever need someone to take immaculate quality photos, PLEASEEEEEEE book with her! She is a professional and a friend at the same time.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Kristina! From the very beginning, she was professional, responsive, and genuinely excited to capture our big day.

On the wedding day itself, Kristina Karpew was an absolute dream to work with—organized, calm, and incredibly talented. She made us and our guests feel comfortable and natural, which really shows in the photos.

The final gallery blew us away. Every photo is beautifully composed, emotional, and timeless. Kristina managed to capture all the little candid moments including our rings, food, cake, set up…etc. we didn’t even realize were happening, and we’ll treasure these images forever.

If you’re looking for a photographer who is not only technically skilled but also kind, attentive, and passionate about their work, look no further than Kristina Karpew / Candid Captures by Kristina. Highly recommend!
